The new iOS 13.4 beta 1 has been out for over a week and now we have another video where we get to look at the first beta of the software.
The new beta of iOS 13.4 and iPadOS 13.4 brings a range of new features to the iPhone and iPad, this includes the ability to share folders in iCloud and more.
New Features in iOS 13.4 Beta 1
One of the most anticipated features in iOS 13.4 is the ability to share folders in iCloud Drive. This feature allows users to share entire folders with other iCloud users, making collaboration much easier. Previously, users could only share individual files, which was somewhat limiting for those who needed to share multiple documents or entire projects.
Another exciting addition is the new Memoji stickers. These stickers allow users to express themselves in new and creative ways. The update includes nine new Memoji stickers, such as a shocked face, face with hearts, and eyes rolling. These stickers can be used in Messages and other apps that support Memoji.
Family Sharing and CarKey
iOS 13.4 also enhances the Family Sharing feature on the Apple TV app. This allows family members to share their subscriptions to Apple TV channels. Each family member can have their own personalized recommendations and watch history, making it easier for everyone to enjoy their favorite shows and movies.
A particularly intriguing discovery in the iOS 13.4 beta is the reference to a new feature called CarKey. This feature suggests that users will soon be able to use their iPhone to unlock, lock, and possibly even start their car. CarKey would use NFC technology to communicate with compatible vehicles, providing a seamless and secure way to access your car without needing a physical key. This could be a game-changer for car owners, offering a new level of convenience and integration with their iOS devices.
Additionally, iOS 13.4 includes updates to the Mail app, such as a redesigned toolbar that makes it easier to manage emails. The new toolbar includes options for deleting, moving, flagging, and replying to emails, all within easy reach.
As this is the first beta in the series, it will be a while before the final version of the software is released. Apple typically releases several beta versions before the final public release, allowing developers and public beta testers to provide feedback and report any issues. We are expecting the final version of iOS 13.4 to be released sometime in March.
Overall, iOS 13.4 beta 1 brings a host of new features and improvements that enhance the user experience on both iPhone and iPad. From iCloud folder sharing to new Memoji stickers and the potential CarKey feature, there is a lot to look forward to in this update.
